The U.S. Department of Defense launched a public archive for UFO-related records and published an initial batch of declassified files. At the same time, crypto prediction markets have responded with contracts tied to future government disclosures. Predict.fun shows a 21% implied chance that the United States will confirm the existence of aliens by Dec. 31, 2026, with about $1.23 million in trading volume, while Polymarket listed a market on whether the Trump administration will release previously unreleased UAP or alien-related files by a specified deadline based primarily on U.S. government sources. These markets reflect trader expectations rather than verified outcomes.
